    Cummins 12v into my CUCV

    I concur that truck has no business with that kind of weight. You need a 3500 dually with a cummins or a duramax as you're into the hotshot arena. Just not the truck for that workload IMHO. Mark

    Cummins 12v into my CUCV

    Tailgates

    No not really. I have those add on corner pieces but haven't installed them with rivets yet. I have to replace the windshield rubber molding as it's old and let's rain in. Always something with these truck. Mark

    Tailgates

    Found some pics online of the gear I used. Bolted the brackets to the wooden slats and wires the strobes to a switch in the dash. I used canvas water buckets with the wires removed as beacon covers. The fit perfectly and look the part. Mark

    Tailgates

    I was really glad to have gotten mine with the AM General wording but didn't realize once I put on the Rhino tire carrier and tire you can't see the tailgate. LOL Mark
